Upstream information

CVE-2026-66858 at MITRE

Description

The protocol skip routine in several Apache Thrift bindings did not apply the binding's recursion limit, so a message that nests unknown fields deeply enough can exhaust the stack. Affected: the Python C++ accelerator (the pure-Python protocols are not affected), the PHP library and its thrift_protocol extension, and the Perl, Lua, Smalltalk and OCaml libraries.



This issue affects Apache Thrift: before 0.25.0.



Users are recommended to upgrade to version 0.25.0, which fixes the issue.
